Since you used “Admissions” in the title of this thread, please understand that it needs to lie dormant until the very end of January when priority admissions are released. FYI, there are no rolling admissions at Maryland - priority decisions come all on the same day by February 1st, which typically is the last week in January but NEVER before the end of January. Any discussions should be held on a separate thread and identified as such. Hang in there, and best of luck to everyone applying.
